Depends on my mood. Silent Hunter 3 I play for action. This isn't to say that it's SubQuake, but there is definitely a lost more eye candy and glitz. The command decisions tend (for me at least) to be much more simple. See convoy, pursue convoy, attack convoy, sneak away from convoy. Plus the technology depicted by the game is much simpler to understand and employ.

Dangerous Waters is much more of a thinking process. You really have to put a lot of thought into the capabilities and deficiencies of your selected platform. Sometimes you have to make unconventional decisions, such as the time (in MP) I had to drift, dead in the water, for close to a half-hour while I reloaded my torpedo tubes onboard the frigate. Or the calculated risk involved in shooting at someone you aren't 100% sure is a enemy.
